General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
Methamphetamine lasts anywhere from 8 to 24 hours, and 50 percent of the drug is removed from the body in 12 hours.
50 percent of the drug is removed from the body in 12 hours; Methamphetamine will stay in the plasma between 4 to 6 hours; it can be detected in the urine one hour after use and up to 72 hours after use.
Methamphetamine metabolites can be detected in the body for 2 to 4 days.
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help!
Regards,
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi
